Merry Christmastime, Everybody! We've been busy and happy. We've been decorating for Christmas, and I'm hoping I can get stockings made for Eva and Aiden before Christmas Eve (otherwise we'll just have to use the random ones we used last year). The kids are having a great time making forts and boats out of the shipping boxes we've received. Aiden took his first steps a couple weeks ago, and now he can zoom on foot from one end of the room to the other whenever he wants ("whenever he wants" being the key term since he still prefers to crawl a lot of the time). He is so sweet and very cuddly lately. Eva was in a darling Christmas music program at her preschool last week. Those concerts are always such a hoot because of the way half the kids are looking the other way or making faces or whatever else.... Eva is so cute and such a good helper. Yesterday at the ward Christmas party she got two cookies (she loves cookies) and, without anyone asking her to, gave one to Aiden (I suspect she licked part of the frosting off of his first, but it was still a nice gesture : ) ) She really is good at sharing. Eva and I decorated a gingerbread house today after church. I put the pieces of gingerbread together and squirted on the frosting for Eva at the beginning, but by the end of it, she was putting on the frosting and the candy all by herself!
